If my family had their wish, I'd serve chicken on the grill every night. This sweet and tangy glaze is an appealing alternative to traditional tomato-based sauces. —Heidi Holmes, Renton, Washington

Made this last night. My pickiest eater absolutely loved it. I thought it was a bit heavy on the mustard, for my taste, but everyone else really enjoyed it. The sauce tastes exactly like the honey mustard sauce at Chick-fil-A.

Thank you "rebelwithoutaclue" for your version of grilling this chicken. I have a weber and I am learning how to use it. My husband use to go all the grilling, but the Lord took him home suddenly and I am now learning how to many new things on my own. Thank you for sharing. :)

This is a wonderful alternative to the the Bullseye BBQ sauce I usually use. My 6 yr old granddaughter absolutley loves it. Definitely as crowd pleaser.

I have been making this chicken for years. I think I have it down. If you have a Weber charcoal grill, try this. Grill indirect, covered w/ vents wide open, skin side up (do not turn). At the 35 min mark baste w/ Gravy Master liquid. Gravy Master will give the chicken a rich color. I always brine my chicken 3-12 hrs to add moisture. I also use coconut juice or peach juice as an alternative. What you get by not turning the chicken is a skin that your family will think is fried chicken. Total cooking time is still 50 min but the Weber lid stays on the entire cooking time.

We LOVE this chicken recipe. I have made it several times, and used ginger ale and sierra mist in place of the pineapple juice and both turned out just as wonderful as the original.
